Clean the Oven Without the Fume Spray

Baking soda and water. One overnight wait. Result: a clean oven, no headache.

Steps

  1. 01Mix half a cup of baking soda with a few tablespoons of water until it's a spreadable paste.
  2. 02Remove racks. Spread paste over the inside of the oven, avoiding the heating element.
  3. 03Leave overnight (at least 12 hours).
  4. 04Wipe out with a damp cloth, scraping any tough spots with a plastic spatula.
  5. 05Spray a little white vinegar in any spots that still have residue — the foam lifts the rest.
  6. 06Wipe one more time with a clean cloth. Replace racks (clean separately in soapy water).
